Mrs. Bibeau (October 27) is not alone. We have all probably failed
to give our children the instruction and guidance they need to survive in a deceitful
world and have a meaningful life. Her son was not ‘crazy’ when he went on a
shooting rampage in Parliament as Dr. Frances noted. He was misguided. In fact
he was born into a culture that is seriously ignorant and misguided in the area
of religion. His life, like the lives of many people, had no meaning or
purpose. We have inherited a post-Christian culture in which many people have
lost touch with their Christian roots. Many Christians have been misguided by
Liberal Protestantism’s denial of an active spiritual force of evil in the
world. Many parents do not have a faith –
any faith, to pass on to their children. Schools do not teach the basics of Christianity
and the Great Religions. The consequence is young people searching for and
finding meaning for their lives in a Satanic religion of violence and conquest.
We all need to wake up and smell the gun smoke. Our schools need to teach the basics truths of
all the Great Religions to give young people hope, meaning , context and the
basic knowledge they need to resist misguided religious teachers - and get over
their fear of offending someone!
P.S. The meaning of life is to love God and enjoy God
forever.
